The Seattle Mariners have traded reliever Drew Pomeranz to the Chicago Cubs, as reported by Ken Rosenthal. Pomeranz, who was playing in Triple-A, had a contract clause that mandated the Mariners either call him up to the major leagues or trade him to a team willing to offer him a major league roster spot. This move reflects the Mariners' strategy to adjust their pitching roster as they navigate the season, potentially opening up opportunities for both Pomeranz and the Cubs.
Drew Pomeranz's trade to the Cubs comes after an upward mobility clause in his contract requiring the Mariners to either promote him or trade him to a big league team.
The decision to move Pomeranz indicates the Mariners' willingness to restructure their pitching roster, as he had recently been playing in Triple-A before the trade.
